LAM-HTGTS

Linear Amplification-Mediated High-Throughput Genome-Wide Sequencing

LAM-HTGTS is a method for the genome-wide detection of –prey” DSBs via their translocation to a fixed –bait” DSB in cultured mammalian cells (Hu et al., 2016). Bait-prey junctions are cloned directly from isolated gDNA using LAM-PCR and ligated unidirectionally to bridge adapters. Subsequent PCR steps amplify the single-stranded DNA junction library in preparation for sequencing.

Advantages:

  • Sensitive detection of DSBs within chromosomes

Disadvantages:

  • Not applicable to limited amounts of material


Reagents:

Illumina Library prep and Array Kit Selector
